Chapter 2: Server Installation
Chapter 2
Server Installation
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your system in a server rack.
If your system is not already fully integrated with processors, system memory etc., refer to
Chapter 3 for details on installing those specic components.
Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent such
damage to PCBs (printed circuit boards), it is important to use a grounded wrist strap, handle
all PCBs by their edges and keep them in anti-static bags when not in use.
2.2 Unpacking the System
Inspect the box in which the system was shipped, and note if it was damaged. If any equipment
appears damaged, le a claim with the carrier.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server. It should be situated
in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and
electromagnetic elds are generated. It will also require a grounded AC power outlet nearby.
Be sure to read the precautions and considerations noted in Appendix A.
2.3 Preparing for Setup
The box in which the system was shipped should include the rackmount hardware needed to
install it into the rack. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation.
Choosing a Setup Location
• The system should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas
where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic elds are generated.
• Leave enough clearance in front of the rack so that you can open the front door completely
(~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow
sucient space for airow and access when servicing.
• This product should be installed only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment
rooms, service closets, etc.).
22
Chapter 2: Server Installation
• This product is not suitable for use with visual display workplace devices according to §2
of the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.
Rack Precautions
• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are extended to the oor so that
the full weight of the rack rests on them.
• In single rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple rack in-
stallations, the racks should be coupled together.
• Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a server or other component from
the rack.
• You should extend only one server or component at a time - extending two or more simul-
taneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Appendix A.
• Determine the placement of each component in the rack you install the rails.before
• Install the heaviest server components at the bottom of the rack rst and then work your
way up.
• Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power
surges and voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
• Allow any drives and power supply modules to cool before touching them.
• When not servicing, always keep the front door of the rack and all covers/panels on the
servers closed to maintain proper cooling.
Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of
the rack environment may be greater than the room's ambient temperature. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (TMRA).
23
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Airow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airow required for safe
operation is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arise due
to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry
and the eect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection
and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should
be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Ground
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself should be
grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connections other than the
direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power strips, etc.).
To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take
special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines
are provided to ensure your safety:
• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
• When mounting this unit in a partially lled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top
with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or
servicing the unit in the rack.
• Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
24
Chapter 2: Server Installation
2.4 Installing the Rails
There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly dierent assembly
procedure. This rail set ts a rack between 25.6" and 33" deep.
The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting
hardware provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the
specic rack you are using.
Identifying the Rails
The chassis comes with two sets of rack rails, one set for the right side of the chassis and
one for the left. Each set consists of an inner rail that is to the chassis, an outer pre-attached
rail that attaches to the rack, and a middle rail that slides forward in the outer rail.

Figure 2-2. Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack
Installing the Outer Rails onto the Rack
Each end of the assembled outer rail includes a bracket with square pegs to t into your rack
holes. If you have an older rack with round holes, these brackets must be removed, and you
must use screws to secure the rail to the rack.
Outer Rail Installation
1. Align the square pegs on the front end of the rail with the square holes on the front of
the rack (C). Push the rail into the rack until the quick release bracket snaps into place,
securing the rail to the rack. Keep the rail horizontal.
2. Adjust the rail to reach just past the full depth of your rack.
3. Align the square pegs on the rear end of the rail to the holes on the rack (D) and push
the rail into the rack until the quick release bracket snaps into place, securing the rail to
the rack.
Note: The gure above is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers at the bottom
of the rack rst.
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must
be bolted to the oor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the
rack can cause the rack to tip over.

2.5 Installing the Chassis into a Rack
Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, you can install the server.
1. Pull the middle rail out of the front of the outer rail and make sure that the ball bearing
shuttle is locked at the front of the middle rail.
2. Align the rear of the chassis rails with the middle rails and then push evenly on both
sides of the chassis until it clicks into the fully extended position.
3. Depress the locking tabs on both sides of the chassis and push the it fully into the rack.
The locking tabs should "click".
4. Thumb screws may be used to secure the front of the chassis to the rack.
Figure 2-3. Installing the Server into the Rack
Notes: Keep the ball bearing shuttle locked at the front of the middle rail during installation.
Figure is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom of a rack rst.

Guidelines Regarding Mixing DIMMs
• All DIMMs must be DDR4 or a mixture of PMem and DDR4.
• x4 and x8 DIMMs can be mixed in the same channel.
• Mixing of LRDIMMs and RDIMMs is not allowed in the same channel, across di󰀨erent
channels, and across di󰀨erent sockets.
• Mixing of non-3DS and 3DS LRDIMM is not allowed in the same channel, across di󰀨erent
channels, and across di󰀨erent sockets.
• Mixing of PMem modules and RDIMMs is supported
• Mixing DDR4 and PMem memory operating frequencies is not validated within a socket or
across sockets. If DIMMs of di󰀨erent frequencies are mixed in the same channel, all DIMs
will run at the highest common frequency.
• Always populate the DIMM with the higher electrical loading on a channel in DIMMx1
(farther from CPU) followed by DIMMx2.

PMem Notes
• PMem 200 Series are supported on 3rd gen Intel Xeon Scalable Platinum, Gold and se-
lected Silver processors.
• Do not mix PMem and NVDIMMs within the platform.
• For MM, NM/FM ratio is between 1:4 and 1:16. The capacity not used for FM can be used
for AD. (NM = Near Memory; FM = Far Memory).
• Matrix targets congs for optimized PMem to DRAM cache ratio in MM and MM + AD
modes.
• For each individual population, di󰀨erent PMem rearrangements among channels are
permitted so long as the conguration does not break X12 DP Memory population rules.
• Ensure the same DDR4 DIMM type and capacity are used for each DDR4 + PMem popu-
lation.
• If the system detects an unvalidated cong, then the system issues a BIOS warning. The
CLI functionality is limited in non-POR congurations, and select commands will not be
supported.
• x4 and x8 DDR4 DIMMs cannot be mixed in the same channel in PMem congurations.

System Fan Replacement
Fan speed is controlled by the BMC depending on the system temperature. If a fan fails, the
remaining fans will ramp up to full speed. The system can continue to run with a failed fan.
Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same model. Failed fans can be
identied through the BIOS. The fan numbers are printed on the oor of the chassis.
Changing a System Fan
1. If necessary, open the chassis while the system is running to determine which fan has
failed. Never run the server for an extended period of time with the chassis cover open.
2. Power down the system, as described in Section 3.1.
3. Unplug the fan cable from the motherboard and remove the failed fan from the chassis.
4. Replace the failed fan with an identical 4-cm fan, available from Supermicro.
5. Push the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure the arrows on
the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on
the other fans.
6. Reposition the fan housing back over the two mounting posts in the system, then
reconnect the fan wires to the same fan headers on the motherboard.
7. Power up the system and check that the fan is working properly and that the LED on the
control panel has turned o. Finish by replacing the chassis cover.

3.8 Power Supply
The chassis features redundant power supplies. The system will continue to operate if one
module fails. It should be replaced as soon as convenient. The power supply modules are
hot-swappable, meaning they can be changed without powering down the system. New units
can be ordered directly from Supermicro or authorized distributors.
These power supplies are auto-switching capable. This feature enables them to automatically
sense the input voltage and operate at a 100-120v or 180-240v.
Power Supply LEDs
On the rear of the power supply module, an LED displays the status.
• Solid Green: When illuminated, indicates that the power supply is on.
• Blinking Green: When blinking, indicates that the power supply is plugged in and turned
o by the system.
• Blinking Amber: When blinking, indicates that the power supply has a warning condition
and continues to operate.
• Solid Amber: When illuminated, indicates that the power supply is plugged in, and is in
an abnormal state. The system might need service. Please contact Supermicro technical
support.

Motherboard Connections
This section describes the connections on the motherboard and provides pinout denitions.
Note that depending on how the system is congured, not all connections are required. The
LEDs on the motherboard are also described here. A motherboard layout indicating component
locations may be found in . More detail can be found in the Chapter 1 Motherboard Manual
Please review the Safety Precautions in Appendix A before installing or removing components.
4.1 Power Connections
Two power connectors supply the motherboard and several more supply onboard devices.
Main Power Connectors
Two proprietary main power headers are located at PSU1 and PSU2. Connect appropriate
power supply units to these two headers to provide adequate power to your system.
Backplane Power Connectors & GPU Power Connectors
In addition to the main power headers, eight 8-pin DC power connectors are also located on
the motherboard. Four GPU Power Connectors, JGPW1–4, are used for GPU devices, while
JPW1–4 are used for four backplane devices. Use the appropriate power cable to make a
connection between these connectors and the storage disk backplane and high-powered
GPU cards (if installed).
To provide adequate power supply to your entire system, connect both main power supply units
(PSU1/PSU2) and all 8-pin PWR connectors (JPW1–4 and JGPW1–4) on the motherboard
to the power supplies. Failure to do so may void the manufacturer warranty on your power
supply and motherboard.

4.6 Storage Ports
I-SATA 3.0 and S-SATA 3.0 Ports
The motherboard has eight I-SATA 3.0 ports (I-SATA 0-3, I-SATA 4-7) and six S-SATA
(S-SATA 0-3, S-SATA 4, S-SATA 5) on the motherboard. These SATA ports are supported by
the Intel PCH C621 chipset. S-SATA 4/S-SATA 5 can be used with Supermicro SuperDOMs
which are orange SATA DOM connectors with power pins built in, and do not require external
power cables. Supermicro SuperDOMs are compatible with regular SATA HDDs or SATA
DOMs that need external power cables.
NVMe Connectors
The motherboard o󰀨ers the following NVMe headers.
P1-NVMe0/1 (one) – Supports two NVMe backplane ports
P1-NVMe3,4,5,6 (four) – Each supports one NVMe backplane port
P2-NVMe7,8,9,10 (four) – Each supports one NVMe backplane port
The P1 headers are supported by CPU1; the P2 headers are supported by CPU2.
The Ultra Riser card may o󰀨er two additional NVMe headers so that all twelve drives can
be NMVe.
Note: Connect P1_NVMe0/1 rst for your system to work properly.

If you will be using RAID, you must congure RAID settings before installing the Windows
OS and the RAID driver. Refer to the RAID Conguration User Guides posted on our website
at www.supermicro.com/support/manuals.
Installing the OS
1. Create a method to access the MS Windows installation ISO le. That might be a DVD,
perhaps using an external USB/SATA DVD drive, or a USB ash drive, or the BMC KVM
console.
2. Retrieve the proper RST/RSTe driver. Go to the Supermicro web page for your
motherboard and click on "Download the Latest Drivers and Utilities", select the proper
driver, and copy it to a USB ash drive.

5.4 BMC
The motherboard provides remote access, monitoring and management through the
baseboard management controller (BMC) and other management controllers distributed
among dierent system modules. There are several BIOS settings that are related to BMC.
For general documentation and information on BMC, visit our website at:
www.supermicro.com/en/solutions/management-software/bmc-resources
BMC ADMIN User Password
For security, each system is assigned a unique default BMC password for the ADMIN user.
This can be found on a sticker on the chassis and a sticker on the motherboard. The sticker
also displays the BMC MAC address. If necessary, the password can be reset using the
Supermicro IPMICFG tool.
